<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$config</span></tt> array contains your configuration variables. It is passed to
the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$this-&gt;pagination-&gt;initialize()</span></tt> method as shown above. Although
there are some twenty items you can configure, at minimum you need the
three shown. Here is a description of what those items represent:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><strong>base_url</strong> This is the full URL to the controller class/function
containing your pagination. In the example above, it is pointing to a
controller called &#8220;Test&#8221; and a function called &#8220;page&#8221;. Keep in mind
that you can <a class="reference internal" href="../general/routing.html"><em>re-route your URI</em></a> if you
need a different structure.</li>
<li><strong>total_rows</strong> This number represents the total rows in the result
set you are creating pagination for. Typically this number will be
the total rows that your database query returned.</li>
<li><strong>per_page</strong> The number of items you intend to show per page. In the
above example, you would be showing 20 items per page.</li>
</ul>
<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">create_links()</span></tt> method returns an empty string when there is no
pagination to show.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="setting-preferences-in-a-config-file">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id3">Setting preferences in a config file</a><a class="headerlink" href="#setting-preferences-in-a-config-file" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<p>If you prefer not to set preferences using the above method, you can
instead put them into a config file. Simply create a new file called
pagination.php, add the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$config</span></tt> array in that file. Then save the file
in <em>application/config/pagination.php</em> and it will be used automatically.
You will NOT need to use <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$this-&gt;pagination-&gt;initialize()</span></tt> if you save
your preferences in a config file.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section" id="customizing-the-pagination">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id4">Customizing the Pagination</a><a class="headerlink" href="#customizing-the-pagination" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>The following is a list of all the preferences you can pass to the
initialization function to tailor the display.</p>
<p><strong>$config[&#8216;uri_segment&#8217;] = 3;</strong></p>
<p>The pagination function automatically determines which segment of your
URI contains the page number. If you need something different you can
specify it.</p>
<p><strong>$config[&#8216;num_links&#8217;] = 2;</strong></p>
<p>The number of &#8220;digit&#8221; links you would like before and after the selected
page number. For example, the number 2 will place two digits on either
side, as in the example links at the very top of this page.</p>
<p><strong>$config[&#8216;use_page_numbers&#8217;] = TRUE;</strong></p>
<p>By default, the URI segment will use the starting index for the items
you are paginating. If you prefer to show the the actual page number,
set this to TRUE.</p>
<p><strong>$config[&#8216;page_query_string&#8217;] = TRUE;</strong></p>
<p>By default, the pagination library assume you are using <a class="reference internal" href="../general/urls.html"><em>URI
Segments</em></a>, and constructs your links something
like:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nx">http</span><span class="o">://</span><span class="nx">example</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="nx">com</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="nx">index</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="nx">php</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="nx">test</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="nx">page</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="mi">20</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>If you have <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$config['enable_query_strings']</span></tt> set to TRUE your links
will automatically be re-written using Query Strings. This option can
also be explictly set. Using <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$config['page_query_string']</span></tt> set to TRUE,
the pagination link will become:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nx">http</span><span class="o">://</span><span class="nx">example</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="nx">com</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="nx">index</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="nx">php</span><span class="o">?</span><span class="nx">c</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="nx">test</span><span class="o">&amp;</span><span class="nx">m</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="nx">page</span><span class="o">&amp;</span><span class="nx">per_page</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">20</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Note that &#8220;per_page&#8221; is the default query string passed, however can be
configured using <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$config['query_string_segment']</span> <span class="pre">=</span> <span class="pre">'your_string'</span></tt></p>
<p><strong>$config[&#8216;reuse_query_string&#8217;] = FALSE;</strong></p>
<p>By default your Query String arguments (nothing to do with other
query string options) will be ignored. Setting this config to
TRUE will add existing query string arguments back into the
URL after the URI segment and before the suffix.:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nx">http</span><span class="o">://</span><span class="nx">example</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="nx">com</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="nx">index</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="nx">php</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="nx">test</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="nx">page</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="mi">20</span><span class="o">?</span><span class="nx">query</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="nx">search</span><span class="o">%</span><span class="nx">term</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>This helps you mix together normal <a class="reference internal" href="../general/urls.html"><em>URI Segments</em></a>
as well as query string arguments, which until 3.0 was not possible.</p>
<p><strong>$config[&#8216;prefix&#8217;] = &#8216;&#8217;;</strong></p>
<p>A custom prefix added to the path. The prefix value will be right before
the offset segment.</p>
<p><strong>$config[&#8216;suffix&#8217;] = &#8216;&#8217;;</strong></p>
<p>A custom suffix added to the path. The sufix value will be right after
the offset segment.</p>
<p><strong>$config[&#8216;use_global_url_suffix&#8217;] = FALSE;</strong></p>
<p>When set to TRUE, it will <strong>override</strong> the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$config['suffix']</span></tt> value and
instead set it to the one that you have in <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$config['url_suffix']</span></tt> in
your <strong>application/config/config.php</strong> file.</p>

<p>If you want to add an extra attribute to be added to every link rendered
by the pagination class, you can set them as key/value pairs in the
&#8220;attributes&#8221; config:</p>
